As soon as Zhang Chao moved here, Gongsun Zhan learned the news immediately, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed in the big tent. "Okay, great, I was worried that Wuhuan would back down because of Zhang Chao's strength. But Zhang Chao's actions are indeed tantamount to helping himself, and it is likely to push the other party to the opposite position, if this is the case, then the joint thing can be done.

At the same time, Gongsun Zhan was happy, and he also led troops to attack the Liaohe, he wanted to take advantage of Zhang Chao's absence and the absence of the main force to win a few battles, which could be regarded as proving his ability to the actual forces.

Liucheng.

The base camp of Wuhuan is located.

Shan Yufu was being built here, and Badun was listening to his generals in the council hall introducing the situation.

"Shan Yu, the envoy sent by Gongsun Zhan will arrive in Liucheng tomorrow, and Zhang Chao, the general of the Han Dynasty, also rushed to Baitan with 65,000 elite cavalry, how to deal with it, please ask for instructions." It was a burly general who spoke with his name Erthep, who was the most trusted general of Bunton.

"Hey, I wanted to take advantage of the troubled times to seek a time for development, but now it seems that we have not been forgotten." Sitting there, the size of a male lion shook his head helplessly. They have always been a nation of calamities, heavily taxed in times of peace, and used in wartime, and this is the role they have played in history.

It seems that everyone who has the ability wants to come to them and take advantage of it. If they weren't strong enough, they wouldn't have been able to hold it out by now. And now I finally encountered an opportunity for development, but I am still remembered, and now it seems that hiding is not possible, and it is bound to make a choice.

It's just that it is attached to Zhang Chao or Gongsun Zhan, but it needs to be carefully considered.

"Erthee, do you think Zhang Chaoqiang or Gongsun Zhanqiang?" Without making up his mind, he asked the confidant general standing below.

Erther was originally a warrior, and it may be feasible to lead troops to fight, but it is worse to analyze the situation in the world. It's just that when Shan Yu asked, he still had to answer, so he hesitated for a moment and said: "Shan Yu, it should be Zhang Chao who is stronger, otherwise, General Baima wouldn't want to come to appease us." ”

General White Horse is the alias of Gongsun Zhan. Because he has an elite cavalry, he is a righteous servant of the white horse, and he is very brave in battle, so he is called the white horse general.

"Yes, if it is stronger than the general trend, Zhang Chao is naturally stronger, but Gongsun Chan is not weak, this is really a fight, and I don't know who loses and who wins." After listening to Ertiel's words, he felt that he was even more out of ideas, so he had no choice but to shake his head and say, "That's it, tomorrow I will see the messenger sent by Gongsun Zhan, and it will not be too late to make a decision." ”

...... ......

Outside of Liucheng, there is a place called Licun. This is the closest place to the city, and it is also a post station built by the Han people. If you can't catch up with the time, you will rest here for the night.

After Guo Xin received the order of Gongsun Zhan, he hurried all the way. Because I wanted to see Badun earlier, I didn't have a good rest along the way, and the calculation of the distance was not so accurate, and when it was completely dark, I rushed to Licun.

Seeing that Liucheng was not far away, but it was completely dark, and seeing that the horses were tired and panting, Guo Xin listened to the advice of his servant and decided to rest here tonight, and then go to see Badun tomorrow in the best condition.

As the long history of Gongsun Zhan, Guo Xin has his own ambitions, and he hopes to make a big career with what he has learned. This time coming to Wuhuan is an opportunity for him to show, he believes that with his three-inch incorruptible tongue, it is very promising to say that he can be said to be ruined, as long as this thing is done, his status and power in the Liaodong Group will be improved.

After several days of running, Guo Xin rested quickly after entering the post station, and it didn't take him a while to fall asleep.

Outside the station, five black shadows began to slowly approach, standing still fifty meters away from the front of Fang To.

All five of them are dressed in black and masked, which adds to their concealment at night.

There is still a distance of fifty meters from here to Guo Xin's room, which does not seem very far, but it is really not very easy, because it has to pass through a small open field, and there are Wuhuan soldiers guarding it, and you can see two sergeants standing there intently.

In other words, it is impossible for the man in black to enter the room fifty meters away without realizing it.

It's just that no matter if it's impossible, you have to do it even when you come. After seeing that the leader made a forward gesture, the five of them rushed forward like arrows from the string, and when they rushed forward, two men in black had already come to the front of the Wuhuan sergeant.

Someone suddenly appeared, out of instinct, Sergeant Wuhuan first shouted that someone was there, and then he met him with the weapon in his hand, and immediately the sound of swords colliding sounded in the small courtyard.

The sound of the weapons clashing was very loud, waking up Guo Xin, who was sleeping, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a black shadow in front of him, and asked, "Who is it?" ”

As soon as the words came out, he saw a long sword stabbing over, Guo Xin just felt a tightness in his chest, and then the whole person gradually lost consciousness, and his eyes couldn't be opened even if he was straining.

Guo Xin was killed, and the sound of the fight here soon spread, and more Wuhuan soldiers rushed to arrest Guo Xin's two men who were still alive and the three men in black who were also alive.

After learning that the envoy sent by Gongsun Zhan was killed, the young general Wuhuan on duty here felt that the matter was getting bigger, so he hurriedly spread the news to Liucheng, and at the same time took the five people and Guo Xin's corpse together.

When he got up at dawn, he received a report from his subordinates, and when he learned that Guo Xin was dead, his face also changed drastically: "What the hell is going on?" ”

The confidant general Er Tien stepped forward and said: "Shan Yu, the identity of those assassins has been clarified, they are people sent by Zhang Chao, the general of the Han Dynasty, to kill Guo Xin in order to prevent us from uniting with Gongsun Zhan. I also met the man in black just now, and he said that he still has something to say to Shan Yu. ”

"What shall I say to my soldiers in my land, and to the messengers who have come to counsel with me? Kill, kill. Ratun waved his hand impatiently, and he was a little angry.

However, Ertie on the side, after hearing the words of the man, quickly shook his head and said, "Shan Yu, no." ”

"Why not?" He asked, puzzled.

"Shan Yu, what do you think, now that Guo Xin is dead, we are equivalent to having offended Gongsun Zhan, and now if we are killing Zhang Chao's people, it will be tantamount to offending both parties, and now they are existences that we can't afford to provoke. It's better to meet the people sent by Zhang Chao for a while, see what he says, if what he says is reasonable, we can think about what to do next, if not, send him to Gongsun Zhan's department, and let them deal with it. "As the general of the Wuhuan army, Ertie is very clear about the strength of the army, no matter which side it is, it is not something they can match, which makes them need to be extremely cautious when making a decision.

Erthee's words were reasonable, and after listening to it, he nodded and said, "Well, if that's the case, then meet the people sent by Zhang Chao, and you can bring people up." ”

In a short time, a young man dressed in a black night suit was taken to the big tent. As soon as he saw the person coming, Ertie on the side said loudly: "Who is coming, don't kneel down and worship my family Shan Yu quickly." ”

"Humph!" The man in black first let out a cold snort from his nose, and then said: "My name is Zhang Qiang, and I am a person under the general, and I have seen Badun Shan Yu." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Qiang just bowed his body, and he really didn't have the slightest intention of kneeling down and worshipping.

Zhang Qiang's actions made Ertiel's face very ugly, so he said: "A little pawn is himself, seeing that my family Shan Yu dares not to kneel, he really doesn't know how to be polite, come and make him kneel." ”

"Wait." Zhang Qiang did interrupt Erther with a loud shout at this time: "When it comes to etiquette, we Central Plains people are the best. But because of this, I can't kneel down to Shan Yu, because I am the brother of the general, and even the surname and name are given by the general, if I kneel now, it will be equivalent to our general kneeling, I just want to ask, this kneeling, can Shan Yu afford to eat? ”

Zhang Qiang's loud rhetorical question made the big tent silent. If it is really as he said, he can represent the general, then this kneeling seems to be really unbearable.

After hearing this, his face was also a little unsightly, and he waved his hand, signaling Er Tien not to persecute the other party, and then he said: "Your name is Zhang Qiang, right, then let me ask you, why did you kill the messenger and my soldiers in my territory?" ”

"I'm saving you." Who would have thought that Zhang Qiang was indeed not in a hurry or afraid to say.

For the task carried out this time, Zhang Qiang completely made his own decision. He is an agent sent to Liucheng by the Tianyan Organization. This is also the role played by Zhang Chao's foresight, he will not underestimate any force, and will install people in advance.

After Zhang Qiang came to Liucheng with the funds provided by the Tianyan Organization, it didn't take long for him to gain a firm foothold, and he even had dealings with some of Wuhuan's young generals, and he also knew from these people that Gongsun Zhan's envoy came to Liucheng, and he immediately decided to kill this person and not give Wuhuan a way out.

In fact, he did, and he succeeded. Now that he was about to face a dilemma, he spoke out what he had prepared long ago.

"You're saving me, hehe, why are you saying that." Badun was also amused by Zhang Qiang's words, and couldn't help but smile and ask.
